1. Reserve your spot
for the June 26, 2005 Salsa Workshop w/Cultural Explosion
Dancers offered by DWG!
We have the pleasure of
offering a dance workshop by
famous Cultural Explosion Instructors/Performers. They are coming all the way from
New Jersey. Workshop Classes will be as follows:
2:00-3:00 p.m.- Spinning Technique
for Men & Women: A bit wobbly on your spins? Take this class and double your turning
ability, from doubles to triples, quadruples, multiple turns, etc.
3:00-4:00 p.m. - Funky/Cool Partner
Work:
Learn how to get in and out of
cool spinning combinations and how to perfect the lead and follow.
Turn patterns will include
hand flicks, locks, and tunnels.
4:00-5:00
p.m. - Intermission/Lunch/Practice: Eat from the lovely buffet
($10-$12)
5:00-6:00 p.m.- Salsa Three-some
Dancing: Hey guys, learn to dance with 2 women at
the same time and how to share your partner with a friend! Ladies learn how to
follow this unique salsa dance. This workshop will double the ladies
following technique as she has to be twice as sensitive to her lead since
she's only getting half a lead when she's sharing the guy with another girl.
Lady has to be very alert and sensitive to the lead when she's being passed
off from one guy to another.
6:00-7:00 p.m. - Salsa Dips, Hits,
Tricks & Freezes: Learn how to use the music and
when and how to dip your partner, when and how to freeze and how to hit the
highs and lows in the music: musicality in salsa - some people just dance to
the music, learn how to dance in the music!!

3.
Sheena
To Teach Basic Salsa at Arcos in Baltimore City on
Broadway Every Wednesday Night in May!
Never been to Arcos?
Arcos is a little gem of a restaurant/bar on Broadway St. a few
blocks down from Fells Point (plenty of parking). This
location is worth a try as it is one of the most beautiful
bars Hugo and I have ever seen. The owner either
carved everything by hand himself or had it done; the
woodwork is incredible. Tables & Chairs are so
beautiful its hard to sit on them! At 9:00 every
Wednesday Sheena is going to have a basic Salsa Class.
For those of you who want a much smaller class but still
some nice classy atmosphere you can try this location out.
Its definitely not a club & has a private patio area (very
romantic) where you can eat outside with arches in the view.
If you didn't enter this place you would never know it was
there. The appetizers are fabulous; try the nachos and
tacos too! For a classy hour of fun stop by at Arcos.
This location is not meant to compete with the "clubs" but
only to cater to the "finer" more "select" members of the
salsa community.
Address: 129 South
Broadway; 410-522-4777. Look for a big silver Arcos sign on
a brick building.
